Could just do a de-googled phone.

Ive had a pixel before with grapheneos but that comes with its own problems, it still uses google services just in a sandbox.

Its cool but I just ended up switching back to normal android because Id rather deal with google entirely or not at all. Not some half and half bs which is unfortunately what android is. Even at the most basic form AOSP is basically unusable without some random google service running in the background.

You don't have to use Google services. They are fully optional, and not installed by default. AOSP/GrapheneOS without Google services is very usable, there are only very few things you can't do without proprietary services. You still have the option to create a separate user profile (which are also improved by GrapheneOS btw) to install Google Play services, and keep it isolated from the rest of your apps and data.

Powered by LibertOS, our proprietary privacy OS with custom precise controls, advanced encryption, a no-trace VPN, Messenger, and a robust antivirus.

proprietary privacy

Those are basically opposites right next to each other.
